can the cameras be placed at a height of 15 to 20 feet off the ground?

I am considering purchasing the Arlo System with 4 Cameras...plan to place them around the outside at a height of about 15-20 Feet. Will this cause any problems with the motion sensor to capture movements around the outside perimeter of my house? Feel like at 7 Feet almost anyone can just reach up with face covered and have them self a free $150+ Camera.

Thanks, John

You can place them 15-20 Feet off the ground, but I find it is hard to see people's faces unless they look up. I share your concerns about someone stealing the cameras that are mounted lower down, but I figure they would have to come onto my property to do that, and if they are up to no good I want to see their face.

Anti-theft support : my version

I did this:

With this

It was originaly a external light, i just took out the glass and the bulb holder inside ...i know I have to wash my wall 🙂 Original post is here, i say it cost me around 25$ to do it but take out 5$ because i also put antitheft screws and this cost me a arm and a leg 🙂

It is safer than original support...and the camera can not get out of the cage. (sorry for my bad english)
